Sounds like another LCA deal. Hang on to your wallet.

Interesting that the estimate of the development cost has doubled to $600 Million though...
Hmm if you are talking about US style development competition and then selection of the best suited, then no IAF doesn't have a choice. That kind of development is yet to happen in India. IAF will have a say on its specifications and hopefully will accept only what it likes. I am glad that IRKUT is the partner. In any case the article sure answered some of your questions.
